[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] HarryTheSatman:
backup before upgrading

I accidentally posted this message first on the Wizard forum. Just found that out now, so I am eposting it here. Sorry for this...

I refer to my question about how to prepare your uni for a roll back in case this should be necessarry. Since nobody replied (and due to the fact that I am a control freak and hate the idea that I will loose control after a possible failed upgrade) I continued my search and found a recipy on how to back up the HTC Uni ROM. This procedure should create a "bootable SD" with a full restore with original bootloader, ROM, ExtRom, etc...

(http://buzzdev.net/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=33157 - How to upgrade your HTC Universal ROMs)

For those who are having start problems with mtty, this was also helpfull for me:

(from http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...UCK_AT_STARTUP)

# Download mtty v1.42 from: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZN7XTZIE http://rapidshare.com/files/115791207/mtty.zip http://www.ziddu.com/download/3776805/mtty.zip.html

# Stop ActiveSync, by Task Manager (press Ctrl + Alt + Delete) kill two processes rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe (alternative to this is to open ActiveSync press "File" and select "Connection Settings", in the newly opened window uncheck Allow USB connections)

# put your device into Bootloader Mode by pressing Power + Record Button and Soft Reset.(if you want detailed information about this step take a look here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index..._For_Beginners )

# Run mtty (from downloaded) Choose WCEUSBSH001 (If you only see COM 1 and COM 2, try unplugging the USB and replugging it, or difrend USB port)

I hope this link will help others :-). My question:

After I upgraded my 2 gb SD to a 16 SDHC i got a 2 Gb that I can use for storing my backup of my ROM. It contains all data that previously was stored from my Uni, like programs, pictures, etc. I put this card straight in my Uni "as-is". In the recipy quotes that we should use a 128 Mb SD. Will this work with a 2 Gb as well? reason I ask is because after I got mtty to work I got this message / error:

I typed : "task 32"

got this reply:

*****************************************

SD: Waiting for card insert.........

CMD3 for SD, it's OK, ready to get RCA from response.

SD: Detected one card

SD: ready for transfer OK

d.total_lba=1EB000

d.block_size=200

d.RCA=4F4A

d.drv_type=40000000

d.busWidth=1

Total card size=3D600000

Read singal error D3

SD read fail!

Level = FF

**************************

Not sure if the error message would have inpact on my backup attempt, I typed at the usb prompt:

"d2s 70000000 80000" (this will backup your bootloader to SD/MMC)

got his reply:

******************************

Not allow operation!

******************************

So, question is if this error is a result of a SD that needs to be formated before using for backup media? If so, which format? fat 16, 32 or nfts? Or RAW format? (if RAW, how to do this?)
[General Questions and Answers] jdhenshall:
I have an LG Incite, and was recently trying to get the SRS WOW HD drivers to work. I failed, and now I have no sound at all. I've uninstalled the program, to no luck. I think the problem lies in the registry.

I was too excited to backup the registry or the ROM, and don't want to have to reinstall all my apps to get the sound (unless all else fails). I'm not trying to get SRS to work, I just want my default sound drivers back.

Does anyone have the default values for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev on the Incite? I have the factory ROM.

I have a Touch HD ROM Version '1.14.405.3 (22273) WWE' ROM Date 12/09/08. Can this be safely upgraded?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] xmoo:
If you use Hard SPl or USPL yes!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] an0nymous89:
how about me? i got 1.18.831.2 (23358) WWE

i was reading the tutorial but im all confused.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
As long as you follow the correct procedure while using either USPL or HSPL you will be fine. Only difference between USPL & HSPL is that USPL is temporary and you are required to re-use it before evry flash to new rom or radio and HSPL is permanent so once its on you can continually flash new roms & radios without having to reuse it.

cRaCKwHoRe provided a nice and easy Dummys guide which can be found in my signature. Alternatively there is more information in the wiki
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] an0nymous89:
sweet thanks for the information. all these flashing stuff is so confusing. i will try to use HSPL.

Question: im reading the guide right now. I got 1.14.0000, so do i go straight to step 5? or do go to step 1? also do i need to download all these files?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Seeing as your following guide your query should really be in the guide thread and this one could be closed my MOD.

Your answer - If you have 1.14.0000 go to step (5) as guide states. Only download what is necessary.

If you plan to be a constant flasher I would ignore most of the guide as it states at start of it and just flash HSPL 1.56 before flashing new rom.

USPL is temporary and you would need to re-use it before every flash to new rom or radio. HSPL is permanent so use it once and never again!!

Hi everybody.

I searched but did not found answer to issue I having.

If I turned on BT my bt headset (A2DP) works fine, but on incoming call there is no ring sound on telephone speaker. When I checked phone i could see that is muted. My wild guess is that phone sends everything to headset because it is in A2DP mode and send every sound through BT.

How to fix this?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] grahamkdt:
Headset?

Is your Bluetooth headset designed to handle calls as well as music? If not, that will be your problem. When I'm listening to music via BT headset, the phone rings through the headset, not the device speaker :confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mofolino:
My bt headset is designed to handle calls.

Any of you guys running rhapsody and a 6.5 rom? Every rom I've tried doesn't allow me to authorize the storage card for subscription music.

Thanks in advance.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] listaction:
same problem here..

was bummed by that..went back to 6.1 because of that and the timelock issue - which I could not remove..

any help others?:confused: I know rhapsody came out with an app for the iphone - the biggest issue with that is that it mandates having an internet connection to even play any songs - and by definition a data plan!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Perion:
I think the issue we're looking at here is DRM rather than anything to do with Rhap itself. Remember that Rhapsody actually uses windows media player to synchronize the files, and what you'll find is that in 6.5 roms (every one I've tried so far), and a number of 6.1 roms, WMP does not recognize the device as being able to play subscription content.

My theory is that this is due to either the DRM subsystem not recognizing the custom rom, missing one of it's files, or being removed by the person putting together the rom. Another possibility with 6.5 is that Active Sync and/or WMP do not recognize the 6.5 version yet and reject it out of hand. DRM, being designed as digital security, is going to be, by definition, difficult to work with in a custom environment.

I'm in the same boat, like 6.5 roms, but I used my phone for portable music as well, and have been forced back into 6.1 roms. (looking for a 6.1 with TF3D2.1 right now that works with DRM and Rhap..)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] xhozt:
not that it helps but same issue here on the incite 6.5 roms .. i feel ur pain man
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] jyknyc:
Any updates on this? Still seems to not work on any 6.5 ROMs.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] jyknyc:
I've been told (I can't confirm it) that Rhapsody To Go will sync with the new 6.5 Verizon ROM. There must be some way to use that ROM to fix Rhapsody in cooked ROMs
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Kojacked:
Add me to the list...

I just upgraded from AT&T stock ROM to a fantastic 6.5 ROM by Tael (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=585129). Now I can't authorize my device or storage card. It's gotta be some DRM stuff that's not cooked in, hard-SPL that breaks it, or something like it that is related to running non-stock. The Intewebs offer no help... Whaaaaaaa!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] jyknyc:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vino_:
Due to some recent changes in WM 6.1, when I uninstall my cab via 'Remove Programs' and then later install it again, it says 'The current version will be removed before the new one is installed'. I am using the WM 6.1 emulator

The reason for this prompt to throw up is because the app name still exists in the \mxip_swmgmt.vol. I have verified this by opening the .vol with MemMaid. I was able to get around the prompt by deleting the respective record from mxip_swmgmt.vol using MemMaid.

Now I intend to achieve the same programatically. These are the API's used.

CEGUID ceGUID;
HANDLE hSession, hDatabase;
DWORD dwErr = 0;
DWORD dwErr1 = 0;

::CeFlushDBVol(0);

// Mount the vol
//
if (!::CeMountDBVolEx (&ceGUID, TEXT ("\mxip_swmgmt.vol"), NULL, OPEN_EXISTING))
{
dwErr = ::GetLastError();
return;
}

At this point it returns and the value in dwErr is 32 i.e. 'The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.'

I went one step ahead and stopped the SWMGMTSERVICE which I strongly believe is holding onto the mxip_swmgmt.vol.

The code now looks like

CEGUID ceGUID;

DWORD dwErr = 0;
DWORD dwErr1 = 0;

// Bring down the SWMGMTSERVICE so that we get a handle to pszVol
//
HANDLE hService = ::GetServiceHandle (TEXT ("SWM0:"), NULL, NULL);
if (hService != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
if (!::DeregisterService (hService))
{
dwErr = ::GetLastError();
return;
}
}

::CeFlushDBVol(0);

// Mount the vol
//
if (!::CeMountDBVolEx (&ceGUID, TEXT ("\mxip_swmgmt.vol"), NULL, OPEN_EXISTING))
{
dwErr1 = ::GetLastError();

// restart the service and return
//
::RegisterService (TEXT ("SWM"), 0, TEXT ("swmgmtservice.dll"), 0);
return;
}

Now at this point dwErr1 contains the error code 1358 i.e. 'Unable to complete the requested operation because of either a catastrophic media failure or a data structure corruption on the disk.'

Any idea how I can get a handle to mxip_swmgmt.vol either by stopping or without stopping the relevant services ?

Thanks.

[Touch HD General] JamesHarris:
Hi,

I am running Miri_WM65_21501_V8.2_Premium with hardSPL 1.56 and have been trying to flash Miri_WM65_21222_V10.0_Premium. When I try and flash using the SD card the bootloader starts ok and "Loading..." appears on the screen but no progress is made.

When I try flashing via the PC the progress bar appears but never gets past 0%, eventually the process times out and I remove the battery and can reboot the phone fine.

I have tried various different ROMs, including the 8.2 version that I am running and the latest ROM from Dutty and get the same result everytime. Other than the ROM upgrade issue the phone is working fine.

Any help appreciated
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
What does your bootloader say? SPL-1.56.OliNex?
[Touch HD General] JamesHarris:
Sorry, my mistake on the SPL version it is 1.54

The bootloader says:

SPL-1.54.0000

MicroP-BlackStone (LED) v6

I upgraded from 1.14 a couple of weeks ago for the Miri ROM.
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
If your bootloader says 1.54.0000 you haven't got HSPL or USPL installed on phone.

All you need to do is either flash HSPL or USPL before flashing new rom

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] theFREAKed:
it is working on wqvga, confirmed. But a suggestion would be that it can load .lnk too, not just .exe because activesync for example needs to call /remote as an additional parameter to repllog.exe to start in window and not just as a process

EDIT: until then everybody who wants to use activesync in claunch just go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\CLaunch\Page that activesync is supposed to be\ and edit ACTIONURL with this string ':MSSYNCAPP' with no quotes

EDIT2: bug report: it seems that it doesn't refresh icons after the first choice. For example i had resco explorer on page1 and activesync on page2 but i decided to switch places for them and now resco has activesync icon and activesync resco's. That wouldn't be weird if i didn't manually chose new icons for each page but they just stay the same. Only after i edited registry and on page1 as an icon put App2 and vice versa it switched them but that shouldn't be like that so I am searching for the problem a little further. If chris doesn't do it first, ofc

LAST EDIT, i promise :D here are 6 fixed scripts. They have a delay when changing icon, but at least they work now

guess i lied, another edit, scripts now refresh themselves, no delay

Nice app... This was the exact launcher I was looking for.

I have an elfin (qvga) with dsixda's latest 6.5 beta rom and so far its working perfectly (I only tried to add apps and assign icons to them)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
You can use FdcSoft Task Manager to export HKLM/Software/Microsoft/CHome/CLauncher. After flashing you just import it again and you have the same setup. You have also to backup the custom icons folder inside Program Files/CLauncher, as in there are stored the icons you define when setting up the launcher. You can procede the same for CSettings and CGames or any other.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
In Program Files/CSettings there are several mscr which you can select, one is App6.mscr which is removing programs.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
The only reason why i don't use the honeycomb menu (or its list version) is that the sequence is not alphabetically and one has to scroll through the whole menu to find something. You can change the list order with reStart but you have to change one by one all shortcuts and folders and it takes hours to setup your whole menu, and there is no way to back this up, so when you flash or hard reset you have to do the whole setup again.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
You have to define this in the Titanium cpr for your resolution, search for CLauncher, and add the following line (in red below):

<Layer ID="CLauncherCondensed" Visible="False" Width="240" Height="34">
[COLOR="Red"]<Image ID="Icon" Left="10" Top="5" Width="26" Height="34" ScaleStyle="Stretch" Source="\Windows\Start_Icon_Marketplace.png"/>[/COLOR]
<Layer ID="Page">

You can choose any icon you want, just replace the Source with the one of your icon.

You can use the same procedure for CSettings and CGames etc.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] witschey:
I use SPB backup to restore my PPC after a hard reset or after installing a new ROM, and as far as I know it DOES keep the order I establish with reStart.

However I have so far stayed with the same version of ROM (even though I have had to re-install it with several tune-ups several times). I don't know how good or bad the restoration will be when I move to a different version...say from my currently installed 23009 to 23016 or 23028. We'll see!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] claus1953:
You are right about a full device backup, but this is not useful when you flash a new ROM as the full restore messes up your new windows and registry. But it should be ok for a hard reset.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] witschey:
I have used spb backup successfully both after a hard reset and also after re-flashing my Kaiser with a the same build of ROM (in my case 23009) but with new EXT packages.

I haven't tried to install a new build of ROM and restore using spb backup; but I am going to try it later today or tomorrow as I am cooking ROMs with 23016 and 23028 builds.

On the spb software itself I have noticed that they offer a lot of flexibility when it comes to determining what you want to back up, and I think that it may be possible to only choose things that will not affect the restoration as long as your new ROM is of the same type (for example WM 6.5). The spb backups don't seem to have the ROM files backup. They only have the registry files and the files that are not ROM files.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] witschey:
I promised to provide feedback on using spb Backup to restore all my WM settings after upgrading my ROM.

I upgraded from Wm 6.5 23009 to WM 6.5 23028 and I have to say that the most recent of spbBackup ROCKS. After upgrading the ROM to WM 6.5.23028 I selected the last SPB backup that I made for my WM 6.5.23009, and Spb Backup detected that I had installed a new ROM and suggested that I choose their restoration method that uses the same phone, but a new ROM.

It restored everything perfectly. 20 minutes after upgrading the ROM to 23028 on my Kaiser PPC I had the system up and running in the EXACT way that I had it when I had 23009. The only thing that doesn't restore perfectly is the connection with my Exchange server, so I have to delete the syncronization and establish a new one. That's the only manual step in the whole process.
